Market opportunities:

International trade of culture goods and services

Quarterly Bulletin from the Culture Statistics Program

Catalogue no. 87-004-XIB Winter 2000 Vol. 12, No. 4

By Cindy Carter and Michel Durand

Canada?s 2001 Speech from the Throne outlined thesignificance of the nation?s culture in an increasinglyglobalized world. It recognized that the opening of newmarkets provides new outlets for Canadian culturalcommodities and services. Accordingly, the governmenthas made a commitment to advance Canadian cultureby providing Canadians and international audienceswith enhanced access to Canadian-made culture goodsand services.

Key industry players believe that globalizationprovides opportunities for Canadians to increaseculture exports, particularly in those niche marketswhere Canada is known to be competitive. As thedomestic market is small, the growth of internationaltrade is fundamental if Canadian companies are tocompete over the long term. Government policy worksto ensure that Canadian culture goods and services,which reflect a community with ancestral roots inalmost every country in the world, will also appeal to agrowing international audience.While culture goods and services are highly marketablecommodities, the globalization of culture also accentuates

Canada?s traditional concerns about foreigncontent and foreign control of the domestic marketplace.Just as expanded international trade opens newmarkets for Canadian goods, it increases our exposureto the culture wares of other countries. Consequently,the focus of new cultural policies, as found in theSpeech from the Throne, is on excellence in the creativeprocess, the creation of diverse Canadian content and improved access to the arts and heritage for allCanadians. Canadian creators (artists, writers, andperformers) are called upon to promote Canadiancreativity across all media.

The international context for trade incultural goods

According to the United Nations Educational, Scientificand Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) Institute forStatistics, world trade in cultural goods rose from $47.8billion (U.S.) in 1980 to $213.7 billion (U.S.) in 1998(from $12 per capita in 1980 to $45 in 1997).1 In 1998,culture goods exports exceeded imports in developingcountries, whereas in the developedcountries, the reverse was true.According to UNESCO, in 1998,global flows of trade in cultural goodswere concentrated between relativelyfew countries with trade that was“unbalanced, heavily weighted in onedirection with few producers andmany buyers.”While the balance oftrade in cultural goods (i.e.

thedifference in value between importsand exports) was relatively even formost countries, trade surpluses ordeficits were sizeable for a number ofvery active trading nations. Themain net exporters (countries withthe most significant trade surpluses)wereJapan, China, Malaysia,Mexico, Ireland and the Republic ofKorea. The main net importers(significant trade deficits) of culturalgoods were the United States, HongKong, Canada, Australia, Belgiumand the Netherlands. In 1998,thirteen countries, including Canada,were responsible for more than fourfifthsimports and twelve countries

of accounted for the same proportion ofexports. It is within this contextthat Canada is working to expandthe size and types of its cultureexports and gain access to newmarkets

Opportunities can be foundin foreign markets

A significant number of Canadianartists are now capturing the attention

of consumers from Canada andaround the world. This has helped toforge an identifiable image for Canada,a sense of what we stand for, and anappreciation of our culture. The recentinternational success enjoyed by theculture sector can be attributed to anumber of factors: maturing culturalindustries, exceptional performancesby creative and performing artists,increased marketing and promotionefforts, growing private and publicsector partnerships and, generally, adynamic international trade environment.The result is that, over thepast ten years or so, the Canadiancultural sector, in particular the filmand video production sector, hasfinally been able to make substantialinroads into foreign markets.

The domestic market for culture productionis small and segmented;increasedpenetration of foreignmarkets is critical if the Canadiansector is to become more viable. Infact, the development of niche marketsis one approach that has beensuccessful for other trading partnersand some Canadian companies haveworked to replicate the approach. Tensof thousands of jobs (an estimated 5%to 10% of culture jobs) are sustainedby exporting activities. The sectorsmost influenced by export-based

employment in 1997-98 were the filmand video production sector (38% ofall jobs) and post-production andlaboratory services (41% of all jobs)

The North American Free TradeAgreement (NAFTA), the EuropeanUnion (EU) and the alliance of Asiancountries offer new outlets for Canadiancultural products and services.Exports, which are assuming anincreasing share of Gross DomesticProduct (GDP), now appear to be themajor engine of growth for the culturesector. In effect, the value of exportedculture commodities, services andintellectual property reached approximately$4.5 billion in 2000. Thisrepresents a 38.4% increase over1996

United States still ourbiggest export market

While Canada trades with virtually allcountries, certain markets haveproven to be more welcoming thanothers for the culture sector. TheUnited States overwhelminglycontinuesto be our most important exportmarket for all cultural products andservices. In fact, according toUNESCO, the United States is thenumber one importer of culture goodsin the world.In 2000, the North American regioncaptured a whopping 94% of Canada?sculture commodity exports (a value of$2.22 billion), a 9.4% increase inmarket share over 1996 .The value of exports to the NorthAmerican market (overwhelmingly tothe U.S.A.) increased by 61% between1996 and 2000 Canadian culture commodity exportsto the Western Europe region heldthe second highest market

share nextto North America from 1996 to 2000.However, during the same period,there was a 45% decline in the valueof exports to the traditional WesternEuropean market; whereby the valueof exports to the United Kingdom,France, and Germany dropped 2%,51%, and 65% respectively. Exportsmay have declined, in part, due toincreased internal trade within theEuropean Union. Excluding NorthAmerica, the value of trade in theremaining regions has declined withthe exception of the Middle Eastwhere the value of Canadian exportsincreased by over 5% between 1996and 2000 Markets in the …Other Asia?regionoffer opportunities for Canadiansthat, as yet, have not reached theirpotential. Canadians had anticipatedgrowth in trade with this region butmany of these markets were affectednegatively by the Asian economic crisisin 1997-98. In 2000, Canada sawimprovements with exports reaching90% of pre-crisis levels, in terms ofvalue, for all commodities.Given its current performance in commoditymarkets other than the UnitedStates (e.g., Central America, Oceaniaand the Middle East10), it would appearthat there is scope fo Canadianexporters to make important gains inmarket access negotiations in theseregions. Aggressive trade promotion,more effective on-the-spot representation,and competitive financing willundoubtedly be part of a concertedmarketing effort by Canadians

Canada one of world’sgreatest importers ofculture products

have emerged as thedominant players in the culture industriesin Canada. The reasons aresimple. These foreign subsidiariestend to market imported goods that

have often already recovered theircosts in their home markets.Furthermore, the revenues from thedistribution of these products do notaccrue to the Canadian companies thatare the most likely to help finance thedevelopment of domestic talent.

Thesemultinationals enjoy natural advantagesof scale in serving a NorthAmerican market. Little or no risk isinvolved in distributing their popular,“mass-appeal” U.S. films, books, andrecordings in Canada. Our bookstores,news stands, record shops, cinemasand television screens testify toCanada?s position as one of the greatestimporters and consumers of culturalproducts in the world. Canadiansenjoy wide access to other culturesthrough imported products; in part, themulticultural composition and heritageof our population feed this interest.Foreign multinationals are not the onlyones involved in distributing importedculture products to Canada. Given thesmall size of the main markets inCanada it is extremely difficult todevelop, produce and distributeCanadian products at a profit. Thisis particularly true for the productionof French-language products for thesmall domestic market. The result isthat Canadian companies, whichfinance the overwhelming majority ofthe “less profitable” Canadian culturalproducts, do not usually becomeself-financing by dealing in Canadianproducts alone. Financial solvencyoften comes from the licensing anddistribution of imported products forsale in Canada.

In 1996-97 theimportation of culture products byCanadian-controlled firms accountedfor 57% of their record sales, 44% oftheir book sales, and 69% of their filmand video distribution revenue, anindication of the role and contributionof imports even forCanadiancontrolledcompanies.As both Canadian and foreign playersare competing for the higher profitmargins associated with the distributionof imported cultural products, itis not surprising that the marketshare of local productions is erodingsomewhat. The continued demandfor imports are making the cultureeconomy, in particular indigenousculture development, a very fragile,volatile and highly competitive sector.

For example, Canadian theatricalfilms represented only 2.1% of revenuesof theatrical films

distributed in1997-98 while Canadian home entertainmentfilms (TV andPAY-TV)accounted for 12.4% of total revenuefrom this activity in the same year.However, on the positive front,imports of culture goods and servicessupport an estimated 300,000 to400,000 jobs in Canada, andCanadian companies get a sizeablepiece of this importing activity.

But growth in demand forimports slowing down

The total value of imported culturecommodities, services and intellectualproperty, reached over $7.5 billion in2000, representing a 22.7% increaseover 1996 (table 1). Much of thisgrowth is attributable to consumerdemand in Canada. Between 1996and 1998, Canadian expenditures ondomestic and imported culture goodsand services increased by 14.6%, anaverage of 6.1% annually This growth was greater than the10.5% growth of expenditures on allgoods and services in the same timeperiod. Overall, however, cultureexpenditures, which are still a relativelysmall proportion of total expendituresby Canadians on goods and services,hover around 3% each yearCurrent trends in demand for importedculture commodities demonstrate thatgrowth is slowing down. While therewas a 13.1% increase in cultureimports between 1996 and 1997,subsequent years have shown muchslower growth: -3.7%, 5.9% and 1.6%respectively between 1997 and 2000It is difficult to predict theeffects of domestic consumption ofculture on import levels. Manyeconomic and socio-economic factorshave the potential of affectingdomestic consumption patterns andconsequently influence the quantity ofgoods and services that are imported.Consumer demand for culturalcommodities is often fairly priceelastic so that the effects of price, consumer debt, personal income, aswell as demographics, may have aneffect on demand for culture productsgenerally, imported or domesticallyproduced.

United States is our biggestsource of imports

The United States continues to be ourmost popular source of imports for allcultural products, counting for 83% ofour culture commodity imports in2000.14 The value of commodityimports from the U.S.A. reached over$3.9 billion in 2000 This is the result of a combination ofinfluences including proximity, thegrowth of multinational corporationsand, like many other countries,Canadians? avid interest in Americanculture products such as books,movies and music.While the value of the North Americaregion imports of culture commoditiesincreased by over 13.2% from 1996 to2000, its market share of totalimported culture products in Canadafell by 3.4%, indicating that othercountries are making some inroadsinto Canada Imports toCanada from the …Other Asia? traderegion grew almost 85% in value f rom 1996 to 2000, with its share of totaltrade also rising 2.3% during thistime period, maintaining its positionas the third ranked import region.Western Europe retained its positionas the second ranked import regionthroughout; the value of imports grew20.7% from 1996 to 2000,representinga 3% increase in the share oftotal imports.

Commodity tradecontribution to culturetransactions

Statistics Canada disseminatesmonthly data on merchandise tradeapproximately fifty days after thereference period, making it one of themore timely trade data sourcesavailable. Culture commodity tradeactivities account for only about half ofall culture international transactions;monetary transactions associated withculture services and intellectual

propertyaccount for the rest. Still, it is usefulto examine the latest trends in importingand exporting activities of culturecommodities.In general, culture commodityexports are growing faster thanimports, although the growth rate forboth has slowed during the latter halfof the 1990?s. Comparing 1996 and2000, culture commodity exportsgrew by 47.3% compared to 17.2%for imports.

The trend of larger export growthrates vis à vis import growth rates isreadily apparent during the last threeyears with growth in exports hittingdouble digits compared to the singledigit growth in imports (table 4).In 2000 the greatest value of culturecommodity exports was derived frommusic, other recordings and software(22%), followed by advertising material(20%) and books and printingservices (17%). These three commoditygroups together accounted fornearly 60 percent of the value ofculture exports in 2000. On theother hand, around 80 percent ofCanadian cultural imports that year

were allocated among books andprinting services (30%); music, otherrecordings and software (27%); and;newspapers and periodicals (22%).

Canada’s net culture tradeposition improving

Canada still faces a large trade deficitin terms of culture goods and services;the value of imported culture goodsand services surpassed the moneyearned by exports by $3.05 billion in2000. This picture is moderated,however, by positive changes to rates ofexport and import. Exports areshowing annual increases greater thanthe rate of inflation and the value ofimports is not growing as quickly. Thisstrong export performance decreasedthe import to export ratio from 1.90:1to 1.68:1 over the same period

Conclusion

As we move further into the newdecade, factors such as free tradeand the growing world market forculture products and services willlend new force to the question of whowe are as Canadians. The existenceof Canadian culture institutions andindustries, with the ability to producecompelling and competitive productsand services, will ensure thatCanadians continue to share in thegrowing world trade in culture.increasingly find themselves competingwith other players in the entertainment-sector for audiences and discretionarydollars. Technology has takenon an increasingly significant role asCanadians bring the Internet into theirhomes and, at heritage institutions,they participate in simulated

environments and interactive exhibits.These developments mean thatheritage institutions must both adaptto the changes in the environment andcontinue to meet the traditional challengesof acquiring and preservingcollections.

旅游服务贸易外文翻译文献(文档含英文原文和中文翻译)

旅游服务贸易的国际竞争力:罗马尼亚的案例 引言 旅游业是唯一的可以为任何发展水平的国家提供贸易机会的服务活动。然而,它也是一个很大程度因为国家的能力和在全球经济中的表现而又有明确的利益分配不均行业,而这又需要提高自己的竞争力。 自20世纪90年代初,罗马尼亚旅游业经历了出口量,生长速率和结构的重大变化。这些不同的波动都影响了罗马尼亚在国际旅游市场上相对的竞争地位并引起了其旅游贸易平衡的变化。同时,新的和更多的错杂的欧式建筑,引起了罗马尼亚的区域旅游竞争力的显著变化。 在此背景下,本文试图提出一个框架,以竞争力和旅游贸易表现之间的关系为重点,来评估罗马尼亚的旅游服务贸易的国际竞争力。 一、国际竞争力视角:国际竞争力之与国际旅游业的相关性 国际竞争力的概念,尽管有争议,难以捉摸,但现在已经得到认可,并继续吸引世界各地的学者和决策者的关注。 到目前为止,为提高国际竞争力已采取措施,都被认为是在经济层面进行的(加瑞利,2003)通常是指一个国家生产的商品和服务,以满足国际市场的考验,并同时保持和增加公民的收入的能力(欧洲委员会,2007)。 由于竞争力最终取决于一国企业在国内和国际的市场成功,所以对竞争力的注意力都集中在企业层面的竞争力上(波特,1990),对于此的普遍理解是指“……该公司保持,并更好的是,扩大其全球市场份额,增加和扩大利润的能力” (克拉克和盖,1998, 经济合作与发展组织,1993)。 因此,虽然广泛流传但是国际竞争力作为与国家经济和其国际贸易相关

的理论基础已经不太在学术文献进行分析。因此,一个国家国际竞争力的性质,效益和局限性仍然含糊不清(科尔德威尔,2000,克鲁格曼,1994, 1996)。 国际竞争力,是指一个国家在货物和服务贸易方面巩固和保持贸易优势相对于世界其他地区的贸易优势。 每当一个国家的经济福利通过贸易流量的增加,或通过从初始平衡状态的贸易条件的改变而增加,他的国际竞争力都会得到提高(科尔德威尔,2000)。 贸易理论表示,经济福利依赖于一个国家有比较优势的货物和服务的生产。这实际上意味着当生产符合一国的比较优势的情况时国际竞争力能得到保障。如果一国能在国际上表现良好并在出口市场竞争成功,这可能就是他们健全的国际竞争力的标志。 因此,在国际上,竞争力定义为一个经济体能够吸引其出口需求和投资供给需求的能力和在所有社会规范内提升公民生活水平的能力。这反过来又取决于宏观和微观经济政策,影响生产的经济生产率要素和经营成本的法规和制度。 一个可用的文献回顾和实证证据支持国际竞争力可以解释为在一定程度上,一个国家的出口能力这一观点(道乐和沃尔夫,1993, 格博格等. 2004)。还有就是,事实上,是出口表现和国际竞争力之间的循环关系。出口是国际竞争力的第一衡量指标。出口情况的改善会导致了一个国家的竞争力提升。这种效果是一个企业的技能,知识,创新和运用新技术并能够在一个成功的商业方式中利用技术机会等的结果。 另一方面,为了在竞争激烈的全球市场努力成功实现出口,一个国家被迫提高竞争力。更具竞争力的国家,它的经济更强大。因此,它更有能力在全球市场竞争,以吸引具有较高的知识,技能,水平人们去购买新技术等,

独特的品牌战略【外文翻译】

外文翻译 原文 Strategies for distinctive brands Material Source: Journal of Brand Management Author:Judith Lynne Zaichkowsky ABSTRACT Brand identity complements brand equity and it forms an important part of the strategic management of brands. Identity elements include a well-known brand name, logo, font type, symbols, colour, shape, as well as unique product and benefit descriptions. These different elements can contribute to distinct consumer perceptions of various brands in the marketplace and help to differentiate brands from competitors. Brand managers need to start with a vision of what they want their brand to represent and then use the appropriate identity elements to build the brand. Some brand identity components may be influential to choice at the subconscious level of consumers, and therefore the understanding of individual psychological processes of perception and social meaning is required by brand managers. Keywords: brand equity ; brand identity ; logos ; brand names ; packaging INTRODUCTION Much literature in the area of branding has focused on brand equity and its importance to strong brands. Although everyone agrees that understanding and creating brand equity is essential for marketing, very little academic attention is paid to understanding the importance of brand identity and its relation to brand equity and brand management. Brand identity is the visual picture and meaning derived from the visual impact of the brand. For the consumer to identify brands with their respective manufacturers, the brands must be sold with distinctive features supplied by that particular manufacturer. Strong and unique links to one source is what complements and protects brands from being interchangeable in the marketplace. Brand differentiation, or identity, may be achieved through a well-known brand name, logo, typeface, symbol, colour, shape, distinctive design of the package or product, as well as product benefit descriptions known as unique selling points

国际贸易中的企业【外文翻译】

外文翻译 原文 Firms in International Trade Material Source: https://www.wendangku.net/doc/b87688982.html, Author: Andrew B. Bernard For most of its lengthy history the field of international trade largely ignored the role of the firm in mediating the flow of goods and services. Traditional trade theory explained the flow of goods between countries in terms of comparative advantage, that is, variation in the opportunity costs of production across countries and industries. Even the research focusing on differentiated varieties and increasing returns to scale that followed Helpman and Krugman continued to retain the characterization of the representative firm.?However, the assumption of a representative firm, while greatly enhancing the tractability of general equilibrium analysis, is emphatically rejected in the data. My research over the past decade has been an attempt to explore international trade from below: to understand the decisions of heterogeneous firms in shaping international trade and their effects on productivity growth and welfare. Firm Heterogeneity and Trade My early work with J. Bradford Jensen was motivated by a simple question: what do we know about firms that trade? The answer at the time was "very little" and our initial efforts focused on locating firm-level data and describing the world of exporting firms. Our first study compared exporters and non-exporters for the entire U.S. manufacturing sector and established a set of facts about exporting plants and firms.?Two major results stand out. First, only a small fraction of firms are exporters at any given time. Even in sectors where the United States is thought to have comparative advantage, such as Instruments, a majority of firms produce only for the domestic market. Similarly, some firms are exporting even in net import sectors such as Textiles and Apparel. Second, exporters are substantially and significantly different than non-exporters, even in the same industry and region. Exporters are dramatically larger, more productive, pay higher wages, use more skilled workers, and are more technology- and capital-intensive than their non-exporting counterparts. In related

International trade documents and the use of import and export trade program closely related, the documents in the import and export enterprise work throughout the export, purchase, transportation, the whole process of the proceeds, the effort is big, timeliness strong, is broad, in addition to import and export enterprise internal between various departments the cooperation with the outside, still must and bank, customs, transportation department, insurance companies, the inspection and quarantine agencies and the relevant administrative authorities happen various contact, linked together, mutual influence, also are conditions. International trade documents for the performance of a contract is necessary means International trade is the transnational goods business, due to the particularity of the multinational business, which is the purchase and sale of the different departments are located in different countries, are remote, in most cases, the goods and payment can't perform simple direct exchange, but only as the medium of exchange with documents means. The international trade of the documents that sales of goods through the documents realization sale, the seller should not only will the actual delivery of goods export shipment, and should submit to the buyer include the title to the goods vouchers, complete documents to show real assignment. The seller/p means that the delivery of the goods, and the buyer payment is get to buy goods on behalf of property rights certificate, the deal is no longer with the goods as the core, but with documents as the core. Documents and payment of the convection principle has become the international trade of general principles of the commodity business. As international trade experts "; m Cardiff in the export trade in his book mentioned: "from a business perspective, can say CIF the purpose of the contract is not the buying and selling of goods itself, but the documents relating to the goods business." What say here "documents" is the international trade of documents. International trade documents many kinds, every kind of documents has its

中国服务贸易的国际竞争力探析——文献综述

中国服务贸易的国际竞争力探析 ——文献综述 随着世界经济进入服务经济时代,以产品为基础的竞争向以服务为基础的竞争转变,服务业在维护一国经济和政治利益方面处于重要的战略地位。据WTO发布的数据显示,全球服务贸易总体发展的趋势在不断加强,1980年到2007年间,世界服务贸易出口额从3650亿美元扩大到33000亿美元,27年间增长了8倍,占世界贸易出口的比重从1/7增长到近1/3。在2010年,世界服务贸易达到了36595亿美元,占当年世界贸易总额的1/3。由此可见,服务贸易势必成为全球经济发展的重要组成部分。 服务贸易在全球贸易比重不断增加,世界各国都从国际服务贸易中受益颇丰,此时,对我国服务贸易的竞争力进行研究,分析我国服务贸易发展不足的原因,发掘我国服务贸易的潜在优势以及探究提升我国服务贸易竞争力的策略便具有非常重要的意义。 1.服务贸易及其国际竞争力的定义 《服务贸易总协定》(General Agreements on Trade in Service,GATS,1994年4月15日),其中对服务贸易做出了明确的定义:第一,跨境提供(cross-border supply),即从缔约方境内向任何其他缔约方境内提供服务,这种服务无需人员、物资和资金流动,而是通过现代通讯、邮电、计算机网络实现的视听、金融、信息等服务;第二,境外消费(consumption abroad),即缔约方境内任何向其他缔约方消费者提供服务,如接待外国游客、提供旅游服务,为国外病人提供医疗服务,接受外国留学生等;第三,商业存在(commercial

Presence),即一缔约方在其他任何缔约方境内通过提供服务的商业存在而提供服务,如外国公司在中国开办银行、商店,设立会计、律师事务所等;第四,自然人流动(movement of natural persons),即一缔约方的自然人在其他任何缔约方境内提供服务,如一国的医生、教授、艺术家到另一国从事个体服务。 服务贸易国际竞争力是指一个国家或地区在经济全球化趋势下,以提高国民收入和生活水平为目的,服务业参与国际市场竞争,创造增加值并保持良好的国际收支平衡的能力。在此,不仅强调出口能力,更重要的是保持国际收支的平衡。 2.国外学者相关研究 2.1对于国际服务贸易竞争力理论方面的研究 迈克尔·波特(Michael E·Porter),1990年提出了国家竞争优势理论,将竞争力与产业结合起来进行研究。在《国家竞争优势》一书中,他提出了著名的“产业国际竞争力国家钻石模型”,用一个形似钻石的菱形图表示出国家竞争力的四大要素(生产要素;需求条件;相关与支持性产业企业战略、结构、同业竞争)和两个辅助因素(机会和政府)。后来,有人将这一理论引入国际服务贸易领域,发现该理论不仅能较为全面和系统地对服务贸易格局进行解释与总结,而且对一国服务贸易的未来发展有一定的前瞻性和预见性,因此能更好地适应国际服务贸易的发展要求。 对于国际贸易比较优势方面,联合国贸发会国际贸易高级专家Murry Gibbs和Michiko Hayashi作了一个较为全面的总结,认为自然资源要素禀赋固然是决定一国服务贸易比较优势的一个方面,但一国服务贸易的比较优势还要取决于该国的经济发展水平和发展类型,以

中英金融服务贸易国际竞争力比较研究【文献综述】

毕业论文文献综述 国际经济与贸易 中英金融服务贸易国际竞争力比较研究 金融服务贸易国际竞争力相关理论综述 服务贸易是以服务作为交易标的的一种贸易行为。《服务贸易总协定》(GATS)所界定的国际服务贸易是指以过境交付、境外消费、商业存在和自然人流动这四种形式进行的各国间的服务交易。该定义已成为有一定权威性和指导性的定义为各国接受。 根据《服务贸易总协定》中的服务部门清单,可以将服务贸易分为12类:商业性服务,销售服务,金融服务,娱乐服务,通讯服务,教育服务,卫生服务,运输服务,建筑服务,环境服务,旅游服务和其他服务。而对于金融服务贸易,国内外并没有确切的定义。本文将对金融服务贸易国外及国内有代表性的研究进行综述。 一、GATS与OECD对金融服务贸易的定义 根据GATS的定义,金融服务贸易是指由一成员国的金融服务提供者所提供的任何金融性质的服务。它包括两个部分:所有保险和保险相关的服务、银行和其他金融服务(保险除外),其中其他金融服务指证券和金融信息服务。 经济合作和发展组织(OECD)对金融服务贸易的定义为由金融机构提供服务的收入,或者接受付出的支持,包括得到的和付出的直接投资收益(未分配收益和利息);从其他金融投资得到的和付出的收益(得到的和付出的利息和红利);得到的、付出的手续费和佣金。 可见,经济合作和发展组织对金融服务贸易的界定强调了金融服务贸易交易的提供方,而忽略了金融服务贸易的消费方。金融服务贸易的发展主要是以此换取其他贸易领域的发展,而且金融服务贸易可以促进本国金融业与国际金融业的接轨,从而在国际竞争中促进本国金融业的发展。 二、国外对金融服务贸易相关研究 对于金融服务贸易研究,国外学者从不同角度出发,有不同的看法。 列为恩(1996)认为,各种金融服务可以实现五种基本功能:方便商品和劳务的交易;易于风险管理;加速资源流动;获取信息,评估企业和配置资本;提供公司法人治理。同时,更多的相关文献表示,金融中介可以降低由于信息不对称产生的管理成本(戴蒙德1984;威廉森1987)也可以对规模经济产生积极的效应。 莫施里安(Moshirian 1994)认为,金融服务贸易和制造业类似,一些基本要素赋予了

者在不同的产品之间进行那些经济学家认为的人为的分别。公司因为品牌而受到尊敬,因此,名牌能使企业在提高价格的情况下而不会失去重大的销售额。 品牌导致消费者经常根据现实世界和“完美的”信息世界之间的比较而付出不必要的多余地的高价,那里同一个行业内的每个公司都承担出售相同的、没有品牌的“同类”产品。这些是在“完善的竞争模型,”作的假定,及有时供经济学家使用的简化的构建。虽然不完美信息是完全自然的和不可避免的。许多经济学家认为完善的竞争的绝佳状态是衡量政策是否理想的评判标准。那是因为在完善的竞争之下公司没有任何力量抬高交易价格。如果公司提高了他们的产品的价格甚至只比市场价格高一分,它都将什么也卖不出去。因此,在完全竞争情况下,消费者不会支付更高一分的价格购买在其他任何地方以更低的价格能买到的相同的产品。毫不奇怪,假定同类产品是理想的,导致以品牌区分产品而减少消费者福利的不正确涵义。那么,反过来,导致由哈佛经济学家爱德华·H 1956年主张的政策——商标不应该被强制执行。 但是,越来越多的经济行业认识到了假定产品是相同的存在着问题。你无法理解由没有下降的品牌效应为其服务的经济目的假定,我们居住在消费者都知晓的完全信息的世界。实际上,消费者没有充分的掌握信息,并且他们也知道他们并没有掌握完全的信息。因此,他们重视公司的名誉——并且他们愿意支付更多在那些一直供应高质量产品、拥有良好声誉的生产商的产品上。通过这种做法,消费者不会不合理行动。他们简单地设法保护自己没有必须用许多时间去学习获得关于各个公

外文翻译 原文 World Trade and International Trade Material Source:https://www.wendangku.net/doc/b87688982.html, Author: Ted Alax In today’s complex economic world, neither individuals nor nations are self-sufficient. Nations have utilized different economic resources; people have developed different skills. This is the foundation of world trade and economic activity. As a result of this trade and activity, international finance and banking have evolved. For example, the United States is a major consumer of coffee, yet it does not have the climate to grow any or its own. Consequently, the United States must import coffee from countries (such as Brazil, Colombia and Guatemala) that grow coffee efficiently. On the other hand, the United States has large industrial plants capable of producing a variety of goods, such as chemicals and airplanes, which can be sold to nations that need them. If nations traded item for item, such as one automobile for 10,000 bags of coffee, foreign trade would be extremely cumbersome and restrictive. So instead of batter, which is trade of goods without an exchange of money, the United State receives money in payment for what it sells. It pays for Brazilian coffee with dollars, which Brazil can then use to buy wool from Australia, which in turn can buy textiles Great Britain, which can then buy tobacco from the United State. Foreign trade, the exchange of goods between nations, takes place for many reasons. The first, as mentioned above is that no nation has all of the commodities that it needs. Raw materials are scattered around the world. Large deposits of copper are mined in Peru and Zaire, diamonds are mined in South Africa and petroleum is recovered in the Middle East. Countries that do not have these resources within their own boundaries must buy from countries that export them. Foreign trade also occurs because a country often does not have enough of a particular item to meet its needs. Although the United States is a major producer of sugar, it consumes more than it can produce internally and thus must import sugar.

关于杭州中心地区服务业竞争力及其发展 战略的评价(节选) 郑建壮,中国浙江省浙江大学城市学院 江海霞,中国浙江省浙江工业大学 摘要:服务行业的竞争力是直接反映在区服务业的发展水平和潜在能力之中的。本文研究了杭州服务行业的发展现状,从中心区的角度构建了一个服务行业的评价指标体系,并分析了杭州每个中心城区服务业的可持续发展的优势和劣势。最后,文章给杭州的服务行业竞争力的提高提出了战略建议。 关键词:中心地区,服务业,竞争力 1. 引言 20世纪80年代以来,全球经济已呈现从“工业经济”转向于“服务经济”的变化趋势。服务业已成为全球经济好转的一个关键的引擎(2005年李和王),它在改善国家经济、增加就业率、调整产业结构和提高生活水平等方面的重要作用是显而易见的。一般来说一个地区的服务行业发展主要集中于中部地区,而不是郊区,因为中心区一般被视为一个城市经济发展的“心脏”,它在地理位置、交通和文化等方面都占有有利因素,不仅可增强生产要素、人口和产业聚集的力量,也有利于市场的发展。因此,中部地区正在成为服务行业的主要区域(李2007)。本文在分析杭州中心城区的服务业竞争力的基础上,进行了相关的评价,旨在寻找到一种有效的策略以提高城市的服务行业发展。 2. 服务产业竞争力的文献研究 大部分关于服务行业的竞争力的学术研究都是基于它们的地区竞争能力之上的。因此,服务业的竞争力可以简单地定义为“服务行业在竞争中获取和利用资源的能力”。国外的研究学者更倾向于特定的服务行业的竞争力分析与研究,如商业服务行业(2001年Rubalcaba和加戈)、保险业(哈德威克和窦1998)、知识密集服务(1999年Windrum和汤姆林森)。然而,在中国,学者们的研究重点则集中于一个特定的区域,而不是一个特定的行业,如中国的31个主要省份(吴2003),中国六大发展先进的省份(2004年刁、庄),中国16个主要省份(2005年苏、张)。由于很多的因素都可以影响服务业的竞争力和复杂性,大多数中国学者认为,我们应该建立一个多层次的综合评价指标体系,如“总目标指导指数”。

国际贸易、市场营销类课题外文翻译——市场定位策略(Positioning_in_Practice)

Positioning in Practice Strategic Role of Marketing For large firms that have two or more strategic business units (SBUs), there are generally three levels of strategy: corporate-level strategy, strategic-business-unit-level (or business-level) strategy, and marketing strategy. A corporate strategy provides direction on the company's mission, the kinds of businesses it should be in, and its growth policies. A business-level strategy addresses the way a strategic business unit will compete within its industry. Finally, a marketing strategy provides a plan for pursuing the company's objectives within a specific market segment. Note that the higher level of strategy provides both the objectives and guidelines for the lower level of strategy. At corporate level, management must coordinate the activities of multiple strategic business units. Thus the decisions about the organization's scope and appropriate resource deployments/allocation across its various divisions or businesses are the primary focus of corporate strategy.Attempts to develop and maintain distinctive competencies tend to focus on generating superior financial, capital, and human resources; designing effective organizational structures and processes; and seeking synergy among the firm's various businesses. At business-level strategy, managers focus on how the SBU will compete within its industry. A major issue addressed in business strategy is how to achieve and sustain a competitive advantage. Synergy for the unit is sought across product-markets and across functional department within the unit. The primary purpose of a marketing strategy is to effectively allocate and coordinate marketing resources and activities to accomplish the firm's objectives within a specific product-market. The decisions about the scope of a marketing strategy involve specifying the target market segment(s) to pursue and the breadth of the product line to offered. At this level of strategy, firms seek competitive advantage and synergy through a well-integrated program of marketing mix elements tailored to the needs and wants of customers in the target segment(s). Strategic Role of Positioning Based on the above discussion, it is clear that marketing strategy consists of two parts: target market strategy and marketing mix strategy. Target market strategy consists of three processes: market segmentation, targeting (or target market selection), and positioning. Marketing mix strategy refers to the process of creating a unique
